Hi guys, i have a notification problem with mi 8..the LED works on 70% of the notifications but 30% does not let me see, I noticed that there is a connection between many notifications and few, when I receive maximum 2/3 most of the time the LED lights up, while I get more than 3 starts not to light up anymore ... it's not always like that, but for many times yes. Obviously I also tried the wipe cache and dalvik, but nothing...same issue with 10.0.6 and last 8.10.25 (xiaomi.eu). On application settings and led notification setting is all "ON", no power saving in these apps. Anyone can help me?
Update:
After several tests I found that the same problem is repeated for the vibration when notifications are received, sometimes it vibrates sometimes not.

I think you are having your first encounter with MIUI's default features. Go to Settings > Installed apps, select the app or apps for which you want to "fix" the notifications for and tap Notifications. From here, select the feature or features you want to receive notification for and how to receive them (Notification light, vibration, etc). When I say features for this, well every app has it's own set of different components to notify you of. For example, Facebook has several options to choose, lets say you only want vibrations and LED for comments and friend requests, you can set those to only provide the notification light or vibrations when you receive them. Gmail on the other hand has few options relating to the types of notifications you receive (since obviously it's only related to email and there are no comments or friend requests on it). Each app has it's own set and you can control what or how you get notifications. If you are still seeing that you are not getting notifications on time or so on, then the default power saving feature may also need adjusting. Go to Settings > Battery & performance > Choose apps and select the app or apps you want to "fix" the notifications for and select the option called "No restrictions". The default setting is useful for saving power, but this also stops certain apps from displaying notifications as soon as you get them (there is a delay which I still don't know if it is random or if it is every hour, few hours or so). Not all apps abuse your battery, but of course some do, such as Facebook which can be annoying if you receive lots of comments, uodates, etc.

es, the problem is that I have already set all this that you tell me, but many times loses the LED notifications / vibration too often. Could you make me a screen of the notifications app installed section of ex. whatsapp (which I always use) so I copy preferences? maybe there are conflicts, if you activate one thing the other does not work well etc. otherwise I do not know what to think ..

Edit: think I discovered this is not just a note 8 issue, how do I delete this thread?
I'm not getting most heads up notifications on my T-Mobile Note 8. Notifications just appear in the notification drawer. I do get the sound/vibration though
Some apps are working reliably (hangouts, ring), others are not (outlook, inbox). Those are the easiest for me to test, so I haven't looked much into others.
I uninstalled pebble and android wear just in case those were interfering. I've rebooted a million times. Turned off everything with notification access just in case.
I turned off the edge light feature, just in case. No change. Also turned it on for everything, the screen doesn't edge light for outlook or inbox.
Any settings that might have been enabled/disabled accidentally?
also, tried resetting app preferences from advanced notification settings, no luck
Any thoughts?
edit: i'm seeing this in my logs but not entirely sure it's related
"09-28 13:57:55.567 1188-1188/? E/NotificationService: Suppressing notification from package by user request."
Also, tried disabling, then enabling those apps notifications
Wiped my phone and installed inbox and outlook, they still don't show notifications in a popup. they make their sound/vibe and appear in the drawer, but still dont show up as a headsup notification so I get no altert if If i have my phone on silent.
Good morning fellas, I have an "issue" that is driving me nuts and I hope someone here could give me a solution for this, I will try to explain:
Since Android 5, the notification system has changed and I hate it!
I always (almost) use my phone in "vibrate mode", I like it to vibrate ONLY when I receive a call or SMS. Messaging Apps like Whatsapp/Telegram, I want the notification LED to work,
for that to happen I need to set a notification tone under Settings > Sound and Vibration, but if I set any sound for this and the phone is in vibrate mode, all the sound is converted into a vibration,
even if the options in Whatsapp, for example, was mutted with no vibration and sound at all... with these settings, the LED works like a charm, but the devil vibrations happen aswell and if I set a notification sound to none, the vibrations vanish, but the LED stops working too... it is really boring, the Whatsapp configuration SHOULD (in my opinion) override the System configuration...
I guess you already understood what I want: phone in vibrate mode, with no vibrate in whatsapp, only LED... (I already tried to block vibration permissions for whatsapp with a 3rd party app for rooted devices with no positive result, because it is a system "bug")
The wierdest thing is: before the update to Oreo, it was working the way I want, even with the crap notification system!
That's it... sorry about my english and thanks for now
Thing is, in some Oreo roms for some reason I had to give permission manually to each app to use LED light...
Use VibraFix from play store (root) if you want to disable all vibration, give WhatsApp permission to use LED light and override do not disturb = no vibrations but LED works.
For some reason I am not getting notifications from one app except one time last night. it's enabled within the app and when I go to settings >> app >> notifications, everything is turned on. is there another setting somewhere I'm missing?
Anyone has any idea how to solve it? tried reinstalling, deleting app cache, deleting partition cache, but nothing helped.
YouTube Vanced is doing that to me
It's frustrating and I also noticed gmail doesn't always alert me of a new e-mail when the screen is off, even now I used the phone and gmail notification doesn't show at all. what is happening with this phone? never had this problem before.
GMail has been flaky for me on some other devices before.
I wonder if it's Samsung's "put apps to sleep" feature that's causing some of this.
I noticed the same thing after switching back from energy saving mode to optimized mode.
On the energy saving mode I only reduced the CPU speed but still no notifications, so I went back to the optimized mode.
Just checked the sleeping apps and my problematic apps aren't listed there.
I'm always on "optimized" power mode since I got it, I even put them in 'apps not optimized' but it changed nothing.
it's bad enough there's no notification LED but not being alerted when there's something new is a downgrade for me.
Since its on topic, any way to stop the stock messaging app from waking the screen with its notifications?

Try going to Settings >> apps >> messages >> new messages >> click on 'lock screen' & select 'don't show notifications'. do the same with 'General notifications' and see if it works.
I've found Pie very intermittent with app notifications count badges, from S9 beta to S10 now

I hope they fix it if it really is pie, the problem is I'm not getting ANY notifications from one specific app and I should be getting many a day.
I am having the same issue, hoping for a fix.

that stops the notifications from showing on the lock screen all together.
back on thread here - I was only receiving gmail notifications in batches and only when i'd wake the screen and unlock the phone. I turned off battery optimization and it seems to have corrected itself. Any app that you are not getting notifications for, make sure they are not being battery optimized.

Oh you mean like whatsapp messages wake up the screen, no idea how to change it to get a notification without the screen.
Yes I already tried placing these apps in the 'not optimized' list but it didn't change anything. gmail is still random & the other completely mute.

That thing to turn off battery optimization doesn't do a thing. Have never worked for any Androids I've had. It doesn't give instant notifications for apps not being optimized and the battery is not becoming any better if every damn app is being optimized either. I don't understand why the setting is there if it doesn't do a thing.
Does anyone face the issue that WhatsApp calls do not turn on the screen when screen is off? When I receive a WhatsApp call, I hear the ringtone, but the screen remains off, once I double tap to wake up the screen, I see the WhatsApp incoming call interface. Normally, incoming WhatsApp calls automatically turn on the screen and show the incoming call interface...

I'm sure I'm missing something, but how exactly does the notification light work on this phone? I'm coming from a OnePlus 3 and I'm just baffled.
The main switch for notification dot is on and is also enabled in the apps' settings.
I have been able to get some notification lights working with the LightFlow app, but basic functions like SMS messages don't notify me at all. Fail for Discord as well. And I should not have to use a third party app, right?
Thanks!
It's a shame it's not working proplerly. Have you tried Whatsapp's in-app light notification settings?
It's still bugged, for everything else it's actually fine, just for the sms message app it comes on once upon recieving an SMS then goes off rather than a continuous blink. I read in one of the old CN firmwares they fixed it, but nowhere in the WW firmware is it mentioned.
I've noticed there's no option for vibration on notification led. What's going on here!, the most important small details are missing.
Notification light of Rog symbol can be accessed by opening Armoury crate app- Console tab-system lightings- advanced settings- notification
I got my Note 9 about five montsh ago and it has several strange issues that I never had on phones that weren't nearly as good. Here are some of the issues (I'd appreciate any help):
1. The ringtones, notifications, and alerts go off on top of each other and also while I'm talking on the phone or have the text application opened. I'm texting someone and they text me and the notification sound will go off though I have the text open. Or notifications and alerts will overlap: a text comes through and while it's notifying me, another text (same or different person) comes through and the notification goes off. Or two emails (same or different email accounts) come in back to back and their notifications will overlap.
2. The ringtones and alerts will suddenly go silent. I often restart my phone when this happens which might fix it for a while but then it's back to doing the same thing. Either the notifications completely go silent (I think it might at least vibrate but I don't remember) or they get quieter than the volume I set them to. Also, sometimes the notifications will simply start working off the media volume rather than the notification volume. I mean, wth.
3. There's a pause or freeze sometimes, like with some text functions (eg. changing individual notifications or opening options for individual text chats).
4. I have seven 'home screens' with widgets rather than just one, but when my phone starts up, it starts on one of the screens and not on my actual (main) home screen. No idea why.
